My name is Vanessa E. and I am excited to share my rich background as a teacher and tutor. My teaching has spanned from the classroom teaching academics to the stage teaching theater. Over the past 20+ years I have shared my talents with children in elementary, middle and high school. My expertise is in reading, writing and math problem solving, as well as an intense background working with children with learning, language and emotional disabilities. My profound method in teaching has led me to become a teacher trainer, helping other teachers design lesson plans that support ALL student learners.

Because of my dual background in education and theater, I infuse my creative artistry into my lessons, making them highly engaging and thus, increasing a student's understanding of difficult material. I enjoy working 1:1 with students because it allows me the opportunity to assess lessons given to students--what is working and how it worked. This informs my future lessons, which is the optimal experience as a teacher.

I have an MEd from Herbert H. Lehman College and a BS in Psychology from Xavier University of Louisiana. I have taught in all school settings, including public, private, parochial and independent schools, and I specialize in teaching exceptional learning strategies to support ALL children, from those with language based learning disabilities to twice exceptional gifted children.

I use my background as a special educator to teach unique yet challenging strategies to enhance a child's phonics, reading comprehension, as well as writing skills. Through differentiated instruction, I create lessons that address the academic struggles each student possesses, then incorporate multiple modes for practice.

I am a permanently licensed special educator with 20+ years of experience teaching children with learning disabilities, speech and language delays, emotional disabilities and other health impairments. I use researched-based informal and formal assessments and create lessons using differentiated instruction mod

Theater

As a theater teacher and director for 13 years, I work with students of all ages, introducing them to the art of theater--from memorizing to blocking to conveying emotion--and then guide them in advancing their craft. I teach the difference between evoking emotion and using motivation to elicit emotion, which deepens ones acting experience. I have directed both dramatic plays and musicals and have successfully assisted students in the audition process for college. I love teaching theater techniques to children.

Public Speaking

I am a permanently licensed teacher who has spent the last four years teaching drama and the art of public speaking to high school students. My curriculum focuses on conveying emotion, connecting with the audience, stage presence and delivery, and last but not least, overcoming fear. Outside of the classroom, I teach theater classes to students of all ages and dedicate a large amount of time to public speaking. The lessons are adapted to the age group and are fun and engaging.

Since the NYS Common Core implementation in 2011, I have applied the standards to teaching students in ELA and Literacy. I help students move beyond general knowledge and teach skills to apply their knowledge to other areas in life. My knowledge base in rooted in elementary and middle school standards where critical thinking, problem solving and analytical skills are applied to reading, writing, speaking, listening, history and science. I have used my knowledge to train teachers from multiple schools on strategies to implement common core to all learners.

Elementary (K-6th)

I hold a permanent teacher certification to teach children in kindergarten through 12th grade. As an elementary school teacher, my aim was to design curriculum using hands-on, interactive approaches to learning. I taught new strategies to tackle the fundamental skills in reading, writing and math. I will use this same goal as a tutor, with the goal of strengthening each child's self-esteem as a reader and writer.
Homeschool

Homeschool

I have taught homeschooled students through the NYS Department of Education's home instruction program for 5 years. During that time, I provided highly structured, rigorous yet engaging instruction to meet my student's needs. I provided consistent home work, made myself available for additional guidance (when and if necessary) and proctored student assessments throughout the year. I am permanently NYS licensed to teach students from kindergarten through twelve grade.
